Summary - 136 COLLINGWOOD ROAD COLCHESTER CO3 9BD
3 bed 1 bath Terraced
Well-located family home with garden and easy commuter links.
Chain free three-bedroom terraced house with private driveway parking
This three-bedroom terraced home in Lexden offers practical family living with no onward chain and off-street parking. The house sits close to Colchester city centre, highly regarded primary and secondary schools, and good transport links including Colchester North station and the A12. A private rear garden and updated kitchen add immediate everyday appeal.
Internally the layout is straightforward: entrance porch, front lounge, fitted kitchen, separate utility and ground-floor WC, then three bedrooms and a family bathroom upstairs. The modern kitchen and double glazing (post-2002) reduce short-term maintenance, while fast broadband and average mobile signal suit homeworking or study.
Notable negatives are honest and important. The property is small overall (approx. 747 sq ft) with a single bathroom, and the original solid-brick walls are assumed uninsulated, so further insulation or retrofit work may be needed. The house dates from the early 20th century and, aside from the kitchen, will benefit from general modernisation to reach higher EPC ratings and comfort levels.
For families the location is a key strength: several outstanding and good Ofsted-rated primary and secondary schools are within easy reach. Investors or buyers seeking a project will value the freehold tenure, decent plot size, driveway parking and sensible guide price against local rental demand. Early internal viewing is recommended to appreciate the layout and garden potential.
